Screw joints on the arms instead of sprung pins. That was the part which broke on the previous runs. It's good to see that they're fixing that.

   Clic here to get the (best as usual) review here anymoon.com/blog/?p=4194Off scale with DX Chogokin but still a great toy. I passed on the SP version (got the regular) -> I Bought this version at NY : cheaper and in stock  The darker kaki makes the difference IMO. SP version has better nose stickers. Just need to sell my Yamato version now... |

Nice but not enough for me to buy it again since I already have the SP. Maybe if the added landing gear as well I'd have bought it.

I never thought about them before!  All my DX Chogokin Valks are either displayed in battroid mode or fighter mode (mounted on display stands). So do the VF-25 and YF-29 actually come with landing gears? |

Also, you may want to check your valks for missing tires since they have been known for this. |

Just took it out of the box after months of sitting around...
What An Amazing figure.
Super heavy with mechanic tool caliber clicky metal skeleton on legs. Very robust diecast joint.
Hips and shoulders have nice chunky metal bits to reinforce the joints. Super heavy.
No cheap PVC i can find.....just high quality ABS. Super sturdy.f
Tons of clickies
Very simple transformation...just the way i like em. Non of the bs Puzzle or orgami transformation.
Cons...
The left shoulder SSS patch or print is peeling....when i further inspected, theres somekind of chemical reaction on the shoulder joint area where its eating the paint also. Wth...
Some of The parts dont tab securely. The back stabilzer is a useless.....An engineer design mistake?
Despite the real cons, its still an amazing toy. Still, I don't excuse Bandai for the cons.
I hope the upcoming HMR Monster is even better then this. His presence going to make this toy look like a toddler.
